New stats

Well, +/- isn't new, but now they are putting it in box scores.

Who had the best +/- last year you ask? Well, here's a fun fact for you:

1. Tim Duncan (+760)
2. Dirk Nowitzki (+626)
3. Steve Nash (+609)

And what is that BA?

Well, here's another fun fact:

Blocks against. For every blocked shot on defence, there is a BA on the person who got blocked. You'll notice, ever BS and BA are transposed for each team.

For example:

Note: Rockets kick ass. Look at that bench scoring. Look at Yao's 5 blocks. Look at Tracy's 17-27 and 47 points. That shit is hot!

But...this post is really about stats =)
